Ingredients

Now, another reason to love this recipe is the fact that it's made with really basic ingredients. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if you have everything you need in your fridge - or pantry - to make it already! If not, a quick trip to the store is well worth it.

Anyway, here's what you'll need to make this corn soufflé:

• 2 eggs
• 2 cups Corn, drained
• 2 cups Creamed Corn
• 1 cup Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
• ½ cup Sour Cream
• ¼ cup Butter, melted
• 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded

Super basic ingredients, right?!

Now, every ingredient has a job to do in this recipe. The canned corn adds a sweet flavor, the corn muffin mix, sour cream, and melted butter make the cakey bread base, and the eggs make it fluffy. And, of course, the cheese finishes it off to complete the best mix of flavors. So, with that said, you won't want to leave out any of these ingredients.

Oh, and if you love how delicious Jiffy cornbread mix is, you can use any extra you have to make this tamale casserole or chili cornbread casserole next.

How to Make Corn Souffle

As I mentioned earlier, as far as souffle recipes go, this recipe is about as easy as they get. Again, just 5 minutes of hands on cooking is all you need to make it. Then, after that amount of time, you can have this corn casserole souffle in the oven and done in 30 minutes, or less.

Anyway, with that said, let's not waste any more time, let's get into how to make this corn souffle casserole!

Step 1: Whisk The Eggs

First things first, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish with cooking spray or butter.

Next, crack the eggs in a large bowl, and whisk the yolks together with the whites until they are a combined, frothy mixture.

Step 2: Combine The Ingredients

Now that the eggs are whisked add the drained canned corn (or fresh corn), creamed corn, Jiffy corn muffin mix, sour cream, and melted butter to the bowl of eggs.

Then, you can mix all of the ingredients together with a rubber spatula until they fully combine and form a thick batter-like mixture. By the way, make sure not to overmix everything, as it can change the texture of the souffle.

Step 3: Bake The Soufflé

Ok, now that the cream corn mixture is ready, you can pour it evenly into the greased casserole dish. And if it's uneven, you can smooth the top out with the rubber spatula. 

Next, sprinkle all of the mozzarella cheese on top of the corn casserole souffle and bake it for about 25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top.

Finally, let it cool for a few minutes, then dish it out with a spoon and enjoy!

How to Store Corn Souffle

This recipe for corn souffle will make about 6 large side dish servings. So it should be plenty if you're serving it along with other sides for dinner.

With that said though, there's never anything left of this corn souffle recipe when we make it for dinner at our house. So, you might want to make a double batch if you want to have leftovers.

Speaking of leftovers, if you do end up with some, they store really well! So, to store 'em, you'll just want to transfer whatever's left to an airtight container, and then you can keep 'em in the fridge for up to 5 days.

By the way, if you want to keep this corn casserole for even longer, you can store it in the freezer for up to 6 months. 

How to Reheat Corn Souffle

Now, reheating corn soufflé leftovers is quite simple, and it tastes just as good - if not better - as it did the first day you made it!

So, to reheat it, you'll want to transfer the souffle back to a casserole dish and warm it in the oven at 350°F for 5-10 minutes - or until it reaches your desired temperature. Just keep in mind, if you're reheating the souffle from a frozen state you'll need to add several extra minutes to the cooking time.

Alternatively, to reheat it even faster, you can add single portions of the corn casserole souffle to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 10-second increments until it's thoroughly heated.

Wrapping It All Up

Well, that's how to make corn souffle!

The whole family will just love how tasty this corn soufflé recipe is, and I know you'll love how easy it is to make too. I mean, there's minimal prep time, the ingredients are simple, and the result is a creamy, fluffy, and decadent dish that is filled with sweet flavors.
